Last Fall, Lang Yarns launched Wool Addicts, a new, trendy, hip line aimed at a younger audience with a focus on natural fibres and designs with simple textures and shapes. The response was enormous and just a few short months later, hundreds of knitters on Ravelry had projects on the go in the various Wool Addicts yarns!
If you’ve been following Wool Addicts on Facebook and Instagram then you’ve been watching the much anticipated countdown to the release of Wool Addicts 2.0. We’ve seen sneak peaks for weeks of another fabulous and fashion forward pattern book as well as two stunning new yarns for Spring. The wait is finally over and we’re delighted to say Hello to Sunshine and Happiness, just what the doctor ordered in the middle of a cold Canadian winter!
Wool Addicts is all about going back to basics, simple lines and designs in sophisticated natural fibres. Wool Addicts Book #2 features twenty-three super trendy patterns including oversized sweaters in basic garter stitch, tank tops, fringed shawls, and shorts – that’s right we said shorts! Wool Addicts Book #2 has something for everyone!
Sunshine and Happiness feature ten colourways – eight warm, neutral, muted shades plus Honey and Berry, two striking colours with mega-pop! Mix and match, or use them separately, either way these stunning shades are sure to impress!
Sunshine
Good day Sunshine! A pure 100% mercerized organic cotton with chainette construction, Sunshine is shiny, strong and has clear stitch definition, perfect for Summer projects!
We couldn’t think of a better yarn to chase away the Winter blues than Sunshine. Every stitch with this luscious cotton will have you dreaming of beaches, warm water, and long, hot Summer days.
Happiness
Just the name brings a smile to our face. Super-soft, high quality Pima cotton blended with nylon gives Happiness its unique soft touch. Oversized knits don’t have to be bulky and heavy with Happiness, this unique pairing of fibres is lightweight and breathable!
They say that money can’t buy Happiness but it can buy yarn, in this case it can do both!
Everyone deserves a little Sunshine and Happiness in their life so why not take a trip to your LYS and check out what’s new for Spring and Summer from Wool Addicts.
